Musalia Mudavadi Proposes Constitutional Referendum to Coincide with 2027 Election - December 2025

Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has proposed constitutional changes, suggesting that a constitutional referendum be held at the same time as the 2027 general election. Mudavadi suggested the referendum could be used to resolve issues such as boundary disputes. This proposal comes as initial attempts to amend Kenya's 2010 Constitution through a referendum have so far failed. The issue has generated mixed reactions, and any proposals to change the constitution during the next general election are anticipated to face numerous challenges.
